Re: Linux When?
#32Atom, like most recent editors like VS Code etc., are just clones of Sublime Text with just lots of bloat and JavaScript tech. I'll just stick to Sublime Text.
You're aware that Atom is not the subject of the article, right?

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
The logo in upper-left links to zed.dev, if that's what you mean. This is not always great for accessibility (they don't have alt=, title=, or aria-*= attributes on the or tags) but seems to be a common pattern.
The logo doesn’t show up on mobile unfortunately.
Scroll a million pages to the very bottom, and it's the totally not-visually-indicated white logo in the blue footer, it's clickable.
I would not have found it or even thought to try to click on it except after reading this claim that it's there somewhere.

#34Sounds great. I'm eager to try it, when a release with early Linux support is published. Keep it going.

#35I'm curious why Zed chose Blade over wgpu/wgpu-hal. There's a bit of detail here: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/7015 But I'd be curious to read a longer writeup on the tradeoffs and how they came to their decision.
Partially because Kvark, who has a long history in graphics programming, was enthusiastic about it, and has similar values of simplicity and effectiveness to our own. Mainly because our renderer is simple enough that we would have preferred to use Vulkan APIs directly, rather than going through wgpu. Blade is a thinner abstraction than wgpu, it's a bit more ergonomic than wgpu-hal, and it already supports our long term platform goals (Linux, Windows, and the web though via WebGL). So far, it's been running flawlessly, and it's been everything else that's the hard part!

#36What's a valid Discord invite for Zed Linux? It seems like the link on the downloads page[0][1] needs to be updated.

Some troubleshooting tips: - Move your mouse cursor to the "Zed Industries" icon in the upper-left-hand-corner, then click. - This "hypertext link" will instruct your browser to load the site's root "index.html", sometimes known as a "landing page". - The "landing page" is a great place to start if you're unfamiliar with a site or product! Here, you'll find the following text prominently displayed: "Zed is a high-per…
Some troubleshooting tips while dispensing dickface advice:
There is no such logo.
(If there is for you, good for you. Some information for you, different browsers get fed different content, iyt's a new thing that only started around 1993 so I can see how you weren't aware.)
Actually there is one, 7000 pages down at the bottom, embedded in the footer and not looking at all clickable.
"Hope this helps!"

#38If Apple had just adopted the Vulkan standard instead of going off with their own proprietary graphics API this would have been a non-issue. Smacks of Canonical and their repeatedly doing one thing while ignoring the rest of the community standardizing on something else.
Re: Linux When?
#39Serious question: I am looking at the measurements of speed on the landing page between Zed and the other editors, and they don't seem drastic. Do you actually feel the difference when typing?

#40am I supposed to know what zed is?
